What to expect

The Canard-Duchêne Champagne estate invites you to its cellars! Hand carved in the 19th century, they span nearly four miles (6km) across four levels, between 40 and 60 feet deep.

Located in Ludes, a village, Canard-Duchêne has been at the heart of the greatest Pinot Noir terroirs of the Montagne de Reims since 1868, found halfway between Reims and Epernay. The estate is situated in a peaceful park with hundred-year-old trees with numerous indoor and outdoor spaces! Admire the stained-glass windows of the old chapel renovated by the workshop of master glassmaker Simon-Marq.

Accompanied by an expert guide, discover the history of Canard-Duchêne, and the different stages of the Champagne production process. Weather permitting, a commented tour of the vineyard will complete your visit!

Then, you can taste two flute glasses of champagne from the Charles VII Cuvées. Made with a majority of Grands Crus and Premiers Crus, and benefiting from optimal aging, the Grandes Cuvées Charles VII express the richness, depth and diversity of the best terroirs of the Champagne region.
